fastest lap i can find from big red is 1.40.35, so paul's 1.39.5 is the fastest gtr lap time at the phillip island ever in a skyline, unless someone can please verify if i'm incorrect.

Thats not Paul's PB at the island, 1.38 i think but he can confirm.

First time at PI in the R35... Agree with everyone about the epic tyre squeal. Need a lot more camber next time and can't wait for next one i can make...

great battle there. interesting to see the different handling characteristics. GTR killing it out of the corners but Audi has great mid corner balance and speed.

what tyres were you guys running?

And big red is a GTST not a GTR.

I'm sure Alif was sub 40 as well.

I'm not sure if this is confirmed, but it was mentioned Paul's car had done. 35-6 or something with a Pro driver.

The R35 went around in sub 37.

hey john, what R35 did a sub 1.37?? is this confirmed or something you heard from a friends friend?

cheers

1 7 SAU Vic Adam Newton (1) Nissan Skyline SKL 5 5 1:39.7769*

It's a far more sorted car now though. I would imagine there being more time there.

The R35 ended up with a 1:35.5966 that is on race slicks though. lol, he did a 37 straight out of the gate in the first session.

thanks guys for confirming adam newtons time, can you please help with locating the r35 135.596. what date? what name is the driver? where do i locate to confirm that time as im still trying to find it?

thanks

On UTQG tyres =>140 Standard AWD, with R compound tyres modified AWD. As long as you leave the FPR and injectors alone that is.

I think the rear quarter windows are lexan, but they weigh around the same as glass with the naca ducts/scoops so that would be ok.

We were both running OEM showroom tyres... Dunlops for both of us I believe. The Audi was a bit slower, running a 1.52 PB for the day. I was only stuffing around in the R35 in that session as my tyres were all but shagged...

    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
